Therapy for insomnia, anxiety, and men's wellbeing — available throughout Charlotte, Concord, Huntersville, and Mooresville

The World Cup is heating up this summer, which means the sleep disruption is local and immediate. Late kickoffs, watch parties, the particular cocktail of alcohol, adrenaline, and social obligation that comes with big sporting events — these aren't just fun; they're physiologically costly. I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I) to help clients in Charlotte, Concord, Huntersville, and Mooresville identify and address what's driving their sleep disruption — whether it's the World Cup, a longstanding pattern, or both. Available throughout the Queen City via telehealth.

Alcohol suppresses REM sleep. Late-night stimulation delays sleep onset. And summer itself compounds the problem: longer days, warmer nights, and a social calendar that rarely respects a consistent bedtime.The result is what sleep researchers call social jet lag — a chronic misalignment between your body clock and your actual sleep timing. It builds gradually and then announces itself as persistent fatigue, mood instability, and the frustrating feeling of never quite catching up.

I have advanced training in Behavioral Sleep Medicine, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBTi), which is considered the gold-standard for treating Sleep Disorders (insomnia, sleep apnea, circadian rhythm disorder). CBTi is a five-pronged approach that includes sleep restriction, stimulus control, cognitive restructuring, relaxation techniques, and sleep hygiene. I am also a member of the Society for Behavioral Sleep Medicine.
